Warehouses & Distribution: Flat Roof Repair & Replacement
Warehouse roofs are big and simple, and the problems on them are big and simple too. Long distances between drains mean water and ice sit if the roof isn't sloped right. Snow drifts pile up against higher walls and the office section. Leaks travel a long way across the deck before they drip, often onto racked inventory. We trace leaks to the entry point, keep drains clear before winter, document the roof's condition section by section, and phase larger work so loading docks and racking aisles stay usable.
What matters on these roofs
Drainage over big areas
Large roofs with few drains pond and then freeze. Crickets, added drains or tapered insulation fix it during a recover or replacement.
Snow drifts
Drifts build against higher walls, offices and parapets. Those areas need watching in heavy winters.
Leaks over inventory
Water travels along the deck before dripping. Tracing it is the job; patching above the wet pallet rarely works.
Phased work
Replacement is done in sections so docks, aisles and operations stay open.
